What a lovely story! The Rhino Keeper combines history & fiction in such a believable way that it feels like everything must've happened exactly as told here.
The story unfolds through 2 timelines, and while I liked both, the plot in the present didn't feel as strong to me. I felt way more drawn to the events of the past - precious little (and later not so little, haha) Clara may have had something to do with that. ^^
It was fun to accompany Clara & her humans on their adventures to & through Europe (and what a surprise to see Vienna, my hometown, make an appearance ^^) and watch them bond through it all. I really enjoyed this beautiful & heart-warming tale!
